I brought the Hip Hop Beat Creator from Big Fish audio, it sounds really awesome.

 
However, I don't know how to put those sequence into midi like below

 
It bothers me a lot......I've been studing it for a while, but still can't figure out how to do.
 
Anyone could help?

Does it not save the files as MIDI?

Is this the Kontakt 5 Plug-in ?

Found this on the web site down at the bottom where users ask questions...so it seems it does not really generate midi data that can be exported easily, Sounds like you have to record the output in real time.. bummer. But it seems it will play a midi track like any VST plug in. Oh well. 
 
Deeside Lau asked: 
 watched through the whold video but I couldn't get the information on how to drag the squence directly into the daw? or the only ways is using the keyboard to record them? that's not really convenience.

Big Fish AudioAny sequence you create can be recorded directly to your DAW when Sequence is used as a plug-in. Your DAW will record MIDI which can be bounced to audio at any time. If you have any further questions regarding this, please contact customer serivce!

It’s simply a MIDI tool, so need to point it at a synth/sampler to get the sounds, but Sonar’s built-in step sequencer is pretty good for electronic style drums. And can be used to sequence any other synth as well.

And Sonar can switch step sequencer clips into PRV editable MIDI clips and back again.

I only know Studio Drummer and Session Drum that can use with Sonar's built-in step sequencer, but they sound too acoustic, any other recommendation?

If you likes the sound that plug in makes,,, why don't you just use it the way it was designed... And can you not point a midi track to play it's sounds so you could add more.

Same way you point any MIDI track at a synth or sampler. Insert the synth as usual with an audio track for the synth and a MIDI track for the audio then set the output of the MIDI track to the MIDI input of the synth.
 
Sonar's sep sequencer is basically just a way of looking at and editing the MIDI data in a MIDI track like the piano roll view and staff views are.
